I've got a purpose built gym in my house:
full rubber floors, mirrors all around, downlights, climate control, power racks and benches, full dumbell range, olympic bars and plates throughout, etc, etc.

I'll never go to a commercial gym again since I have everything I need and it's all commercial grade anyway, so there is nothing that I miss about a public gym.

I have a Soloflex. /t\ Actually, I work out a Gym about five minutes away. Im back working out early 430/500AM, so its not too bad. Not too many people, just the same group of people every morning. Unfortunately, I dont have the space nor do I have the equipment for my own personalized gym. That will come in time though.
